Country: Argentina / Tradicional Oak Cask

This starts out with textbook aromas of red and black fruits that are pure and easy to get into. It shows kick on the palate, with oaky flavors of coffee and chocolate that accent ripe berry and mild herb notes. It’s toasty and spicy on the finish, with a gritty feel.
